Increased Serum Free Light Chains Precede the Presentation of Immunoglobulin Light Chain Amyloidosis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2014
Purpose Patients with immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis (AL amyloidosis) generally present with advanced organ dysfunction and have a high risk of early death. We sought to characterize monoclonal immunoglobulin (M-Ig) light chains before clinical presentation of AL amyloidosis.

Delivering Proteins and Enzymes to Solid Tumors Through the Development of Stimuli‐Responsive Nanocarriers

ChemNanoMat, Volume 12, Issue 6, June 2026.
Stimuli‐responsive strategies to achieve controlled release of protein‐based therapeutic agents into solid tumors. Proteins, enzymes, and peptides have long been recognized as valuable therapeutic agents, particularly in oncology. However, their complex chemical structures render them more sensitive than smaller chemotherapeutic drugs.

Causal Effects of Hydrophilic Bile Acids on Carfilzomib‐Related Cardiovascular Events in Multiple Myeloma: A Mendelian Randomization Study

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 119, Issue 6, Page 1494-1502, June 2026.
Carfilzomib is highly effective in the treatment of multiple myeloma, but it has been associated with cardiovascular adverse events that impact patient outcomes. Our prior global metabolomic analyses indicated an association between hydrophilic bile acids and carfilzomib‐cardiotoxicity risk, although a causal relationship remained to be determined ...
